Tum ho to gaata hai dil
tum nahi to geet kahaan
tum ho to hai sab haasil
tum nahi to kya hai yahaan
tum ho to hai sapno ke jaisa haseen ek samaa
jo tum ho ye lagta hai ke mil gayi har khushi
jo tum na ho ye lagta hai ke har khushi mein hai kami
tumko hai maangti ye zindagi….
tum ho to raahein bhi hain
tum nahi to raaste kahaan
tum ho to yahaan sabhi hai
tum nahi to kaun yahaan
tum ho to hai har ek pal meharbaan
ye jahaan………..
jo tum ho hawaa mein bhi mohabbton ka rang hai
jo tum na ho to phir koi na josh na umang hai
tum mili to mili ye zindagi……

Darkness...
As senseless, as it can get...
Darkness.., that floods the night sky,
Studded with beautiful stars, which I see no more; in sight…
Envelope me, gently, with your caress; Oh! darkness
Shadow; my soul from the evil world…
More than a friend, you have become,
The night sky, that I’d like to lie and stare!
Share my grief, my only good friend
Who’d listen like a ghost, as I grieve within…
Another reason, another pain
Another person, a painful bane;
Another day, another plight,
A tomorrow, that I’d hate to fight…
I want to run, away afar,
Not from the darkness but from the sun..
So far that nobody can see,
Even if they could, who’d let me be!
Oh darkness, please come again,
Save my soul, again, so cold…
From a day, that I’d hate to see,
The sun, the rain, the nature’s kin!
Whom from; to run, I think sometimes…
I’d think again, I’d rather deny..!
I run, I run;
I run again, ask not, where; how and when..,
Perhaps I am afraid of the morning sun,
Or perhaps, my eyes have dried; out of tears, today again;
Put me to sleep; oh! mighty night sky..!
One more time…my earnest friend,
In the blanket of your darkness;
I’d rather die, than to see tomorrow; in your stride…!
Solitude! I seek, is it too much to ask?!

The Bro Code - Demystified.
Source : Yahoo Answers!/"How I met your Mother" - Barney :)
Here are twenty "Golden Rules of Manhood" from pointsincase.com
I. Bros before hoes. I cannot stress this enough. Always remember, girlfriends come and go, but your boys are always there. Breaking this rule is to commit the cardinal sin against Team Testosterone.
II. Never drink the last beer, unless you've been granted specific permission that it's OK.
III. If a girl falls into the following criteria, she is off limits forever until the end of time:
A. Was an ex-girlfriend.
B. Your friend specifically told you he wanted her.
C. Is you're buddy's sister.
However, if it's your buddy's cousin, well she's up for grabs, and you're welcome to rub it in his face for years to come.
IV. Never diss a guy if his team just lost a crushing game. I lost approximately nine friends last October who felt the need to bust my balls when the Red Sox lost to the Devil's Bitches. Just leave it alone, it's kinder to pick on them for a dead relative.
V. You must never own a cat.
VI. If you get 2 tickets to the big game, the priority list for granting the second ticket is as follows:
1. Your best friends (in order of how long you've known them).
2. Your acquaintances.
3. Your co-workers.
4. The mailman.
5. The UPS guy.
6. NASA.
7. John Kerry.
....1,485,726. Your girlfriend.
VII. You are allowed to enjoy exactly one chick TV show, and one chick flick. (Mine are Dawson's Creek and Love, Actually). You may have no more. And if you like Grease, well, we're already too late.
VIII. Birthday and Christmas presents for your guy friends are optional. Beer always makes a great gift.
IX. If you go the bar with your buddies, you must buy a round of drinks at least once.
X. There are no mercy rules when playing someone in Madden, hoops, street hockey, bare-fisted boxing, etc.
XI. If you owe someone money, pay them back as soon as humanly possible—unless it's a gambling debt, which must be paid immediately.
XII. Standard shotgun rules are as follows.
A. Shotgun may only be called within full sight of the car.
B. Shotgun must be called outside.
C. Shotgun calls last approximately ten minutes.
D. Shotgun never carries over to a second ride.
XIII. NO PDA (Public Displays of Affection). Hey, congratulations, another girl can stand the sight of you. You don't need to wear her like a ******* trophy.
XIV. It's alright to cheat at any game where money isn't involved. In certain circumstances, relationships may be classified as "games."
XV. Don't tell other guys elaborate stories about your weightlifting exercise routine. No one cares.
XVI. Never openly question another guy's sports wisdom, unless said information specifically pertains to your favorite team. It doesn't matter how ludicrous the other guy sounds telling you that Jake Plummer was better than Steve McNair last season, let him be.
XVII. When out with the guys, never accept a call from your girlfriend—unless she's dying or trapped under a burning fuel truck, and if that's the case, make it quick.
XVIII. Always allow a buffer zone at urinals and on couches.
XIX. Never share a bed with a guy, unless there's no way around it.
XX. Bros Before Hoes. I know, I already used it. I can't stress it enough, though. It is absolutely infuriating how many of my guy friends have become insufferable ***** since they've gone out with someone.
Then I found these added by readers at Rules For Men

A man should not sing and dance at the same time
A man should not watch Oxygen, Womens Entertainment, or Lifetime.

A man should not speak more than two languages.
A man should never say "it's to die for"
Kevin

A man should never wear a sweater over his shoulders
A man should not eat grapes from the vines
A man should never rollerblade
The word cute should not be used other then describing a chick they want to bone
If you compliment a guy on his six-pack, you better be referring to his beer.
A man should never, ever wear capri pants.
A man should not wear flip flops with a suit.
No man should wear a speedo to the beach
No man should make a kissing face in a photo.
No man should wear girl jeans

scribbling...
Golden as a sunflower,
On a fine Friday morning
I saw the sun, burgeoning
Brightly into the spring sky…
I started to smile, dream
Beyond, afar, into a distant land
I went, for a moment so brief.
I sketched the birds, flowers,
Spring time grins, bright smiles!
In my mind's eye.,
I saw, not anything,
Could go wrong now,
The beauty; eternal;
Cannot be surpassed!
I submitted myself;
Though I reckoned,
For a quick second, I blenched!
Why Oh lord! does it happen,
I thought, quietly…
Just as the first leaf fell!
Leaving its branches, floating…
In a cosmic dance, sluggishly!
Inanimate, this time.
Fighting the earth, it landed!
None could do nothing, too late;
Except to hear the scream,
Of a life, so lifeless now…
Slowly, came; as the monstrous!
Chill, to remind, thee,
Cycle of life, misses none!
Strange journey I thought,
Why Life?! To live, to wither!
Oh! What happiness! I thought,
Before I grab, fade’th away…
Deprived, of love, truly it deserved!

The Immortals: The First Fifty
A good list, albeit, not the ranking though... Greats like Pink Floyd missing and bands like AC/DC rated under Eminem. I believe the list needs a major overhaul with the rankings! Check it out, some of the greatest bands ever! Check out the article here.

Glacier National Park, Montana!
Click here for Map of Glacier National Park.
If "A picture speaks a Thousand words" has any truth to it, then it doesnt get better than this. An absolute nature lover's paradise, this Glacier National Park, set on the US-Canada border in unexplored North West United States, in the state of Montana! Anything I say will not do justice to this place which is as close to paradise as a human can ever get ...I guess! A complete treat to the eyes and by far one of the Best Places I have ever been to.
Montana, whose name comes from the beautiful mountains that enclose this wonderful state, forests, rivers and wonderful wildlife! is a heaven in itself. Getting there is pretty trecherous, but is worth every effort. We drove more than 10 hrs at a stretch, slept in Gas stations and had no proper food for a couple of days, but at the end of the day, as the pictures convey, its just superb! I flew upto Spokane, WA all the way from Kansas City,KS. Spokane is a small airport and doesnt have too many flights coming in or going out. Alternatively, a more closer airport is the Glacier National Park airport, but it rarely has any commercial operations by any major airlines, and no doubt would be very expensive. Getting off at spokane, we drove all the way upto Montana, under normal weather, a drive of more than 6 hours, during night and inclement weather to reach the western end of the Glacier National Park. The western end is the closest to the Interstate-90 Eastbound (about 300 Miles west of the park). We took a break in Kalispell, for the night.
Accomodation is available and is a small town at the foot hills of the park. Beware during inclement weather, as it gets very very bad snow and parts of the roads are closed on a regular basis. Glacier National Park itself is closed during winter, for more than 4-6 months due to early snow and doesnt melt until later in the year. Activities are endless but are seasonal. Make sure you have enough time to spend at the park, as it only gets better day by day. Weather changes are extremely high and people with altitude sickness need to be prepared for.
"Going to the Sun" highway is the historic route through the park.Tha road connects Glacier One route which starts from the west, along lake Mc.Donald and goes on to become "Going to the Sun" as the park gains elevation. The road connects the western end to the eastern and every mile is a vista in itself. It is said that, watching the Sun Rise from this road is the best view one can ever get of a sunrise! or in the worst case, a Sunset! The glow, the view you get on a clear day are beyond words and breathtaking at the very least, glowing up the whole valley! Get your camers clicking! This park has been rated by National Geographic as one of the World's 10 best locations.. to die for! :) The western end to the eastern end can also be reached by going around the park, which is beautiful too! Driving through the valley, and along a river and a rail route, the reflection of the sun rays turn Golden by sunrise or sunset and is a complete treat! You will see the most pristine transparent waters, awesome greenary, rivers, streams leading to an elevation of more than 11000 ft above sealevel! If you can imagine what it is like, that should inspire you enough to take up this journey! Going to the Sun road is a historic route constructed with the sweat and lives of hundreds of men and women on a very harsh terrain. I invite you to visit my photo gallery on this site as you scroll down and make your trip to this Virgin location in the United States! Miss it at your own cost! :) Also, dont miss the FlatHead lake on route 93 Southbound and further, Hot Springs on US-28 Soutnbound which are beautiful too, and I'd say is the end of these beautiful vistas before you hit the Interstate. The interstate offers some very good views too, to keep you going :). visit the NPS website or write to me if you need more info! Trust me, Make this Happen! It will be the Best Ever!
I believe I have better pics but More pictures from National Park Service can be found by clicking this link :).

Blue Ridge Parkway, N.Virginia/North Carolina!
I live in the state of Virginia, and this place is a definite MUST SEE park. Welcome to Blue Ridge Parkway. The parkway starts at the end of Skyline drive at Shenendoah Valley in Virginia and extends into the Great Smoky Mountains, North Carolina with a total distance of 469 Miles. As beautiful as the Shenandoah Valley, I'd say Blue Ridge beats it! Taken care of by the National Park Service, it has absolutely beautiful mountain vistas, rivers, cottages and forests which make this excellent drive through the national park all the more beautiful! It is accessible from Front Royal, if you are coming from Washington DC/Northern Virginia. I will add in more details soon. For now, enjoy this beautiful set of pictures...which can never describe these beautiful mountains completely..
scroll down for more info and maps..!
Adding to the info above,the parkway runs parallel to Interstate-81 Southbound and the park is also accessible through various points on Interstate-81, apart from I-66 from NOVA(N.Virginia/DC). Also, the max speed limit on the parkway is 35 MPH. If you would rather go faster, you would need to get off on to I-81. Only a few areas along the parkway have services like Gas, Food and Lodging, which are open seasonally. Thick clothing is a must most of the time! Have enough of it! There are plenty of campgrounds, trails (2 Mile to 40 Mile) and overlooks, each competing with a breathtaking look over the other. There are quite a lot of places to crash for the night, but you need to get off the parkway most of the time. If you prefer to stay on the parkway and experience its early morning beauty in all its splendor, try Peaks of Otter,Bedford.The parkway reaches a highest point of 3950 ft in Virginia before extending into North Carolina. I have been to this parkway on more than 3 occasions and I still cant get enough of it! Beware though, of the wildlife, and of Winter closures! Visit the National park service website for more info, or just email me! :) Have a good one! Will get back with another exciting trip!
A map of Blue Ridge Parkway can be found by clicking on this link.
A new lease of life...
Something inspired me to start a new blog, away from my older ones. As I begin to start a second phase in my life, I thought why not start anew, afresh and with energy! So here I am, hopefully, totally charged!(you'd know if you have read my previous blog :))! lets get talking! More to come.....
